[Act I – Calisto and Melibea]

Description
-
The illustration is divided into two panels. It is associated with the scene in which Calisto, while practicing falconry, encounters Melibea in her garden. On the left, we see Calisto dressed in noble attire, with a sword mounted on his belt. On the right, we see Melibea dressed in a robe and a veil. In her left hand, she is holding the girdle cord that will become important later in the narrative, while in her right hand she has a flower. She appears to be holding it in front of her face, perhaps an expression of her modesty. A small dog stands at her feet, perched on its two hind legs while extending its front paws toward her. The entire image is identical to the one on page 196 of the text. The left panel is identical to those on pages 43, 162, and 190. The right panel is identical to those on pages 150 and 244.
